Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-1601:
-----------------------------------------------

The decision to not automatically retry any entity enclosing requests including 
PUT goes back to the days of HC 2.0 and predates even my involvement with the 
project. It was a conscious decision to keep things the same way in HC 4.0, and 
not a defect. The tutorial describes that HttpClient does rather what RFC 2616 
says. You are very welcome to rephrase or improve that particular statement you 
deem fit, by the way.

> Open up [chapter 
> 1.4.2|http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/tutorial/html/fundamentals.html#d5e280],
>  it says that {{PUT}} is not idempotent. This clearly violates [RFC 7231, 
> section 4.2.2|http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-4.2.2]. It should be 
> checked whether this is just a documentation flaw or even maybe an 
> implemenation flaw.
